Additional tips:

I find that most lenses are surprisingly easy to disassemble. Lens spanners help. Most glass elements fall out (or can be easily pried out) when the fitting rings are gone.

To reassemble dust-free I wipe clean and use a bottle of compressed air at the last moment before the element is sealed it. Wipes just don't go dust-free.

Thanks for the tip

Cheers,

Lloyd
